What to do while waiting for kids


Since September I have been going to swim team practice 4 nights a week. 1 hour practice and 15 minutes (90 total hr) waiting for him to emerge from the locker room. Don't get me wrong I love the fact he loves the sport. Swimming it is a great sport good for you non jarring and lets face it I could not swim 30+ laps a night.


This I some of what I did what I did tonight

  1. Grommet(eyelet) many superhero mask… I tend to be a favorite with all the little kids always looking for a mask …" watcha doing?" they say … I think every kid at the pool under the age of 5 has a mask that was deemed unfit to sell.
  2. Ties knots for the above mentioned superhero mask
  3. Talk to other parents or not
  4. Take picture of child in the pool
  5. Take photos of kid not swimming
  6. Read a book… I have the attentions span of fly
  7. Thread windchime shells on to fishing line for Sunday school... 800 knots and counting
  8. Write a blog post like this one I don't surf because no internet access
  9. Have hanging 4 year old telling me she is hungry
  10. Dig through purse for the waiting child to have something to eat
  11. Edit photos
  12. Watch my son get yelled by the coach for splashing the other kids
  13. Draw really bad picture for my daughter
  14. Thinking why is it so crazy humid the pool
  15. (note to self must buy more deodorant)
  16. Find hair clip in bottom of bag to put hair up
  17. Thinking water must be cold
  18. I really must make sure I am not wearing my slipper socks when I come to swim practice
  19. The best is when no multi tasking is needed and I sit and watch my kid swim…

Calling all 1979 perms

In 1979 I was in the 3rd grade and my mother took me to the beauty parlor that was located in between the Kmart and the McDonald( the MCD's where if you got invited to a birthday it was the coolest). After sitting for hours squinting my mother reading her Redbook, not being able to see much further because my blue graduated tinted glasses sat on the counter. The gum chewing blond hair beautician carefully used rolling paper, plastic pink and teal perm rollers in my Dorothy Hamel hair cut, all so I could have some "Body" in my hair. Then sitting under a dome dryer "Blondy" would come over from time to time to make sure my hair was not "fried" from the harsh chemicals.. all so I can have the curly hair I was never meant to have. After the 3 hour order deal the perm that fell out the 1st day I washed it. I think my mother is still pissed.

So my sister and I thought that famed Pink foam rollers would make have curly or even wavy hair like Marian Liva a girl who down the street. So my mother would wash, set our hair every night before any big event, we slept in the rollers. Then in the morning Viola! Two straight hair girls had curly Marian Liva hair. Flash Forward 30 years…. My daughter has been obsessed with Fancy Nancy, and her fabulous locks. So walking around the grocery store I saw them the miracle giving foam rollers all for the bargain price of $1.89. I came home and she was so excited…She sat while I did them then, slept in them as her mother did before her…all to have curls.

Here is some pictures of the fun… If you have a daughter you have the try it…it is so much fun and no one will recognize your child.

Next time I am using the pink..
